Note: We strongly suggest when returning for exchange/refund you use a reputable service and ensure your parcel is insured correctly in case of loss or damage.

The low cost solutions such as Evri (previously MyHermes) & Parcel2Go have a terrible record of returning goods safely, should the items be received back damaged, lost, wet due to parcels being left outside we will not be able to accept them back.

IF you are at all unhappy with your purchase online or by phone simply return your order within 14 calendar days of receipt (when the parcel is delivered to you) in a resale-able condition; unused and unworn in the original boxing ensuring that the labels have not been removed for a FULL REFUND or EXCHANGE for a different size.

If for any reason you are unable to return within 14 days, please email us sales@alternative-footwear.co.uk as soon as possible as late returns may not be accepted.
